WHAT THE BUILDING INSPECTOR HAS TO SAY ABOUT
THE REPORT OF THE GRAND JURY ON THE THHATERs
AND GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE.
Building Inspector Entwisle considers the re-
port OF the grand jury upon the condition OF the
theaters and the Government Printing once pub
nshed in Saturdays STAR, to have been fair
statement of the facts. TO the inquiry what he
proposed to do about it he replied that the matter
is one to be determined by the court which or
dered the Investigation, and therefore 1t would not
be proper for him to advance his views upon the
subject until the court had concluded the labors.
The building inspector added that he has the
power to order that the defects in the various
theaters be remed1ed within specified time, but
he declined to state whether or not, in case the
court was satisfied to let the matter rest he would
feel warranted in taking the responsibility upon
his own shoulders.
Mr.. Entw1sle said that the report upon the Gov
eminent Printing Office was correct in every par
t1cular. Its the worst fire-trap," said he, en-
phatically, sin the United States, and a disgrace
TO the Government That building is four stories
high, 300 feet long and 90 feet wide, and in the
two upper stories about 1,5OO women work, and
yet there is only one stairway for them to escape
by In case Of q fire breaking out"

Trade with Baltimore.

The ice embargo upon trade and travel be.
tween the Eastern Shore and Baltimore, has
started afresh the agitation in respect to the
proposed Baltimore and Eastern Shore Rail-
road. We want to see the Eastern Shore
developed to the fullest extent along with all
cilities needed for the freest communication
with our chief city; but if there were a dozen
railroads running directly from the Eastern
Shore to Baltimore, they would not greatly
increase the trade between that section and
the city, because Philadelphia and New York
offer its citizens q superior market. Balti-
more will not pay the prices which are paid
for produce in the cities named, and the pc
ninsula having direct and rapid railroad COM
municatioR with them, it is impossible TO di-
vert the trade of that section from them.
Much of the marketing, even along the water
courses, goes directly to Philadelphia and
New York, and would continue to go there,
though Gen. Seth should succeed in building
dozen railroads directly to our chief city.
If she wants to increase her trade with the
Eastern Shore, let her improve her market,
then she will be able to secure due proper
ton of that trade, but not till then, no matter
how many railroads may be built with their
western termini within her borders. Much OF
the trade from this section, which lies almost
within the shadows of her steeples and mon
uments, goes directly to New York, because
the business men of that city offer superior
inducements.

The annual report of the Comptroller, for
the fiscal year ended September 80, 1886, has
lust been published, and some extracts were
given in the ADVOCATE last week:
The Comptroller shows that in three years
the debt has been reduced $l,27l.7Sl.s9, max
ing an average of S423, 910.6S year. Atthe
same time the sinking fund has been increas-
ed in the same term from S411, 209. Is to ST.,
s5I 900. Is, an increase of 81, 440, 0S1.0O in
three years But since this increase includes
bonds of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company, placed to the credit of the fund by
an act of Assembly, that amount, S366, w,
is deducted, showing an actual increase OF
the fund from the revenues of 81, 074, 0Sl. 90
an average of 1858, O27 year. This increase
the COMPTROLLER shows ~onld have been lar
ger by s2O7, 900 if we had no session OF the
General Assembly last year, since the expen-
ditures by that body amounted to that sum.
The states expenditure. however, was some
S25. 900 less than in 1884, a legislative year.
Comptroller Turner thinks that a reduction
in the states direct taxation can be made,
aud will recommend to tte next Legislature a
reduction of cent and three-foarths. Infive
years he believes that all direct taxation, ex-
cept for public schools, can be dispensed
with
Altogether the report makes gratifying
exhibit. and the condition of the finances is a
tribute TO Democratic economy and manage

true spirit is meyer better observed than when
the peoples taxation to its support scrupu-
lousy limited to the actual necessity of ex-
penditures and distributed according to a
Just and equitable plan. "-Clerelands First
Annual Message.
"When more of the peoples sustenance is
exacted through the form of taxation than is
necessary to meet the just obligations of the
Government and the expenses of its econom-
ical administration, such exaction becomes
ruthless extortion and a violation of the fun
damental principles of free Government"
Cereland's Second annual Message.
1.-THE taxes to be first RENTED are those
which prevent or hinder the sale of our sur
plus products in foreign markets. Their re-
moval will set capital in motion by the promise
of better returns, enlarge the steady employ
ment and increase the annual income of many
thousand wage earners, whose prosperity will
diffuse prosperity. "-Secretaly Manning s
